Why Exceptional Students Are Looking Past the Ivy League | Stephen Blackwood

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Stephen Blackwood, the founder of Ralston College, about the type of students Ralston College is seeking; why serious-minded, intellectually talented individuals who value friendship and freedom of thought are looking outside of the Ivy League; why despite the vast number of higher education institutions in the U.S., they've seen significant demand for their program; why more students are looking for engagement with great works of art and intellect; and much more.

Applications for Ralston’s 2024–25 MA in Humanities close soon, on Sunday 12 May: if you would like to learn Ancient Greek in Greece, then study the great works of Western literature, philosophy, and art in beautiful and historic Savannah, please make your application at the link below. The strongest applicants will be eligible for a full scholarship, covering all costs.
